I'm new to jQuery and can't figure this one out. Instead of using an ajax get and innerHTML to load in external html, I can just use jQuery's load function:
$(emptyDiv).load(externalHTMLFile); which I like! I would like to do is make better use of the graceful animations that jQuery has. I would prefer that the external HTML not show up so suddenly, but instead to slide or fade in place. It's not clear to me how to make that happen. I tried "chaining", but by the time the content is loaded, the chained animation doesn't really do the trick: $emptyDiv).load(externalHTMLFile, function() {$emptyDiv.slideDown('slow');}); If you know of answer, please share. Thanks for any help. Tony
